@prasannavishy Using China as an inspiration is a good thing, but trying to belittle, exaggerate and even misinform what China was or looked like “back then” is misguided. Chinese government or authorities did not and could not hide what was going on across the country. It was simply impossible
@GlennLuk God gave China Yangtze River, the world's 3rd longest river carrying by far the world's largest water transport tonnage. It's West-East waterway.
God gave China numerous high mountains such that China has developed world's largest hydro-power projects.
God takes God gives.
@AngelicaOung In this one of the most memorable episode of CCTV 2024 Chinese New Year Gala. People recite (rote memorization from childhood?) together their most favorite classic Tang poems by Li Bai, the famous Tang poet.
A touching and unifying moment (4'52''):

@zephyr_z9 This is so naive. US can dictate to China because China is compute-constrained?
Has the US ever able to dictate to China on anything important? Seriously.
@pstAsiatech "... and that what we should instead be focused more on is developing what Dalip Singh called a shared doctrine of restraint."
Good luck with that. Keep in mind: America will do the right thing after all the alternatives are exhausted.
@ruima Due to the inherent "intermittency" of solar energy, not all solar power capacity can be converted into power generation. On average, about 25% of capacity are converted into actual power generation.
This is in line with the numbers you quoted: 13% vs 50% for 1,286GW vs 1285GW.
@teortaxesTex it has to do with a profound fear and insecurity about China by American elites now.
I was intrigued and thought about why the same type of warning/caution/label would not apply to any Americans studying Russia or Iran. Simply, the US feel much more confident facing either.
@CarmenMedinaXQ One of the best Chinese dramas and my favorites. I have watched it several times.
Love to see people still love watching it after ten years. I might watch it again now that you mentioned it.
@AP_Wills1@RnaudBertrand This is delusional thinking.
You can print the money, but they won't buy you the capacity. Yes, technically, the USG can print as much money as they want and won't need to declare insolvent on paper, but in reality, the empire won't function long before that.
@BeijingDai The problem with all the Chinese robot companies are that they all have access to the same supply chain. There is simply no strong moat for most of them.
They can either go for vertical integration therefor lower the total cost a la BYD or go deep in tech, e.g. chips and AI.
@hamandcheese These kind of games make robots fun and approachable and allow the public to be more engaging with the robotic revolution underway.
Instead of showing them how robots can only replace human and take away their jobs.
